Note that the above caused an incompatible format change in the back-bdb/hdb 
index databases. If you've used any presence indexing or equality indexing of 
integer attributes, you'll need to run slapindex to get the new format.
	slapindex -q -t
should do the trick.

Obviously there've been a lot of other changes. There are still one or two new 
features in CVS that will show up in the next 2.4 release. But in the 
meantime, this release is generally more usable than 2.3.
